Bat Removal & Exclusion in East Harlem — FAQs
Why are bats common in East Harlem buildings?▾
East Harlem's older pre-war buildings, brownstones, and multi-family residences often have deteriorated soffits, loose fascia boards, and chimney gaps that provide perfect entry points for bats. The neighborhood's proximity to parks and the Harlem River also makes it attractive habitat for bat populations seeking urban roosts.
What does the bat exclusion process involve?▾
Our process begins with a thorough inspection to locate entry points and roosting areas. We then install one-way exclusion devices that allow bats to leave but prevent re-entry, followed by sealing all access points with durable materials. We also provide attic cleanup and sanitization to remove guano and eliminate health hazards.
How much does bat removal cost in East Harlem?▾
Bat removal and exclusion services in East Harlem typically range from $900 to $2,500, depending on the colony size, number of entry points, building height, and extent of exclusion work needed. We provide free inspections and detailed estimates before beginning any work.
Is bat removal safe and legal in NYC?▾
Yes, our bat removal methods are completely humane and comply with all New York State and NYC wildlife protection laws. Bats are beneficial creatures and protected species, so we use exclusion techniques rather than extermination. All work is performed by licensed professionals following strict safety protocols to protect both occupants and wildlife.
